Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A base station antenna apparatus, comprising: a base station antenna housing; a base station antenna, located in the base station antenna housing; and a parameter collection apparatus, located in the base station antenna housing and connected to the base station antenna, comprising: at least two global positioning system (GPS) antennas, configured to collect an engineering parameter of the base station antenna, and a processing apparatus, connected to the at least two GPS antennas, configured to receive the engineering parameter from the at least two GPS antennas and to save and manage the engineering parameter; and a driving apparatus configured to drive the at least two GPS antennas in opposite directions so as to move the at least two GPS antennas into and out of the base station antenna housing; wherein the driving apparatus further comprises a mounting support and at least two antenna supports; wherein at least two driving levers and at least one screw lever are arranged on the mounting support, the driving levers and the screw lever are arranged in the at least two GPS antennas are arranged on the at least two antenna supports separately, a driving block is fixed on each of the at least two antenna supports, a driving nut is arranged on each driving block, the at least two driving levers pass through the driving blocks, and the screw lever is screwed into the driving nuts, so that when the at least one screw lever rotates, the driving blocks are driven by the driving nut to move away from or towards each other along the at least two driving levers.
2. The base station antenna apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the screw lever is driven by an electromotor arranged on the mounting support.
3. The base station antenna apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein a driving gear is arranged on the screw lever, an electromotor gear is arranged on a rotation end of the electromotor, and the electromotor gear is engaged with the driving gear, so that the electromotor gear is configured to drive the screw lever to rotate.
4. An apparatus for collecting an engineering parameter of a base station antenna, comprising: at least two global positioning system (GPS) antennas, configured to collect the engineering parameter of the base station antenna, and a processing apparatus, connected to the at least two GPS antennas, configured to receive the engineering parameter from the at least two GPS antennas and to save and manage the engineering parameter; and a driving apparatus, configured to drive the at least two GPS antennas in opposite directions so as to move the at least two GPS antennas into and out of the base station antenna housing, wherein the driving apparatus further comprises: a mounting support and at least two antenna supports; wherein at least two driving levers and at least one screw lever are arranged on the mounting support, the driving levers and the screw lever are arranged in parallel, the at least two GPS antennas are arranged on the at least two antenna supports separately, a driving block is fixed on each of the at least two antenna supports, a driving nut is arranged on each driving block, the at least two driving levers pass through the driving blocks, and the screw lever is screwed into the driving nuts, so that when the at least one screw lever rotates, the driving blocks are driven by the driving nut to move away from or towards each other along the at least two driving levers; wherein the apparatus for collecting the engineering parameter of the base station antenna is disposed in a base station antenna housing.
5. The apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the screw lever is driven by an electromotor arranged on the mounting support.
6. The apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein a driving gear is arranged on the screw lever, an electromotor gear is arranged on a rotation end of the electromotor, and the electromotor gear is engaged with the driving gear, so that the electromotor gear is configured to drive the screw lever to rotate.
7. An apparatus, comprising: a base station antenna, located in a base station antenna housing; at least two global positioning system (GPS) antennas, configured to collect an engineering parameter of the base station antenna, and a mounting support and at least two antenna supports, wherein at least two driving levers and at least one screw lever are arranged on the mounting support, the driving levers and the screw lever are arranged in parallel, the at least two GPS antennas are arranged on the at least two antenna supports separately, a driving block is fixed on each of the at least two antenna supports, a driving nut is arranged on each driving block, the at least two driving levers pass through the driving blocks, and the screw lever is screwed into the driving nuts, so that when the at least one screw lever rotates, the driving blocks are driven by the driving nut to move away from or towards each other along the at least two driving levers, to cause the at least two GPS antennas to move from the inside/outside to the outside/inside of the base station antenna housing.
8. The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the screw lever is driven by an electromotor arranged on the mounting support.
9. The apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein a driving gear is arranged on the screw lever, an electromotor gear is arranged on a rotation end of the electromotor, and the electromotor gear is engaged with the driving gear, so that the electromotor gear is configured to drive the screw lever to rotate.
